Commercial Description:
We brewed this Special High Gravity Cream Ale in serious celebration of the return of the salubrious Spring... With the long dark days of the Season of Damp nearly behind us and the possibilities of a long languid Summer ahead.

Sampled at the Second Cellar Reduction. 12 oz bottle. Clear orange pour with wispy white thin head. Honey with a hint of spruce aroma. Flavor is semi-sweet grain, some alcohol, and floral hops. Medium syrupy body with medium carbonation. Piney hop finish. I was very pleasantly suprised with this one.

Cloudy amber, with an off-white head. Aroma is malty, with some hop (grass, spicy, light citrus), sweet caramel, and slight alcohol. Taste is alcohol, sweet caramel, nice bitterness and lightly hoppy aftertaste.

Bottle. Pours a light copper color with a small white head. Aroma of sweet malts, honey, grassy and piney hops with some floral notes. Flavor is moderately sweet with caramel malts, honey, light citrus and a hint of grapefruit with a crisp bitter finish.

Pours a slightly hazy copper with a thin but nicely laced head... Aroma of bready malts with a noticeable creaminess aroma similar to that of a creamy double ipa but without the pungent hops... Taste of the same bready malts with a slight sweetness and a few of the subtle hops... Medium/full bodied with a lingering creamy mouthfeel, moderately drinkable...

12 oz. bottle - Poured clear copper color with golden edges. Small white head. Aroma - citrus hops, caramel malt and fresh pine. Great smelling brew. Flavor - Tastes more like a autumn beer, reminds me of a Oktoberfest beer. Malty and not overly bitter. Palate - light to medium mouthfeel with decent carbonation. Finish is slightly dry and mildly bitter. Overall - I liked this beer, thought it was easy to drink and higher ABV is plus.
